Kalkmüthel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kalkmüthel , also just Müthel or Kalkmittel , was a volume measure in Austria and was only used for building lime . The basis was a conical hollow cylinder without a bottom, which was called Kalkmüthel and gave its name to the measure. The calibration was prescribed every two years and was considered a sales measure. Different ordinances determined the size: March 21, 1755 and August 29, 1772. The ordinance of 1755 prescribed these dimensions for the interior: below 19 ½ inches , above 22 ½ inches and 23 1/3 inches high, the measure was used and accumulated could be halved, quartered and eighth. The measure was from January 1, 1859, like the Kohlenstübich , in the crown lands, With the exception of the military border , binding. As a result, the ordinance of the Imperial and Royal Ministry of Commerce on January 20, 1858, suspended the very highest introductory patent for special coal and lime measures of September 23, 1780.
